one of the times i put it in to DFU mode and just hit 'restore' without hitting shift to pick my restore file it asked me to upgrade to OS3.0...if i just did that would it still want me to activate it or only keep it in emergency call mode?

Ugh. I'm sorry you're having so much trouble. I'm out of suggestions, unfortunately.

If you upgrade to 3.0, it will still want you to activate and the unlock method for this firmware just came out and may not be as reliable. I'd recommend you stick to 2.2.1 for now and work on unlocking/activating that version...

thanks for your help
so i have decided to try to just go and use QuickPwn rather than try to restore the firmware...
on the first screen it asks to find the firmware file...after selecting it it had a nice big green check mark so i am guessing thats the correct version on the phone?

i am going to keep going forward and see what comes out...
right now i am at the screen where it says 'preparing your device - please wait' it is trying to get the phone in to recovery mode...

Yay! I'm glad to hear it worked!

Now, just ignore iTunes when it wants you to update to the 3.0 firmware, unless you want to go through this whole process again.
